its true for me. that nature is the best therapy for my too stress-stricken life. i've spent the weekend with friends in a resort in la union to unwind. took the chance to visit my dad as well in his resting place. its his birthday today. (happy birthday daddy!)

we were supposed to go to Baguio. but i suggested the resort get-away is a better idea. i needed to relax so much and i was just glad that they agreed with it. we were there at 9 am last saturday. spent most of the day in bed and preparing food with the other girls. then had an afternoon swimming at the beach. it was so much fun.

sunday morning i decided to walk along the beach. picking up sea shells. i didn't notice that i went far off the resort. i just felt so tired after awhile and realized that i should be getting back. it was so relaxing. and the sound of the waves was soothing as well. i remember telling my dad how much i wanted a beach house. it was my dream, i want to live near the sea when i get old. not some big mansion with pretty cars on the garage. i want a simple life.

on our way back to manila, we dropped by at the cemetery, lit a candle and said some prayers for dad. the trip back was much longer and tiring, but i felt my renewed self looking forward to a brand new day.

(sans the sore throat and the coughing...i feel much better...much more peaceful...)
